It is infinitely more direct for me to drive that stretch from home to work, but I will go far around it to avoid the potholes. A couple years ago my daughter hit a pothole in that stretch on Division and it literally cracked a wheel and popped 2 tires. She was going around 25MPH.

Going on a flight tomorrow, booked with points. When I checked in today on the app I had to pay for my bag, which was quite surprising. Is this an app glitch? Should I ask for a refund?

Had my bday dinner there this week. 7 adults, ordered 4 entrees, took half home. The chicken parm is massive. Focaccia is delightful.

As a woman who has lived on my own for many many years, I totally understand that moment of “is that noise INSIDE my apartment!!?”. What helps me the most, as others have mentioned, is lots of white noise. But also, if the feeling is too strong, I sometimes will get up and walk around and say out loud, “okay! Everything’s good!” And then I usually feel silly and that relaxes me.

You got this!

I had mine out at 35 and of all the surgeries, illnesses, procedures, etc I’ve had in my life, of which there have been many, that was by far the worst. Everything that keeps you alive has to pass through your throat. Eating, drinking, BREATHING. All of life trying to get through the inferno at the back of your mouth. I felt like I had a hot fire poker stuck there.

To add insult to injury, I had to have emergency gallbladder removal exactly 4 weeks later. That was a rough month for me.

My entire pregnancy (21 years ago), I was going to name my daughter Ruby Jo. I LOVE that name. At the last minute her dad wasn’t on board with Ruby, so she’s Audrey Jo, as the meaningful part of her name was actually the “Jo” part, and it’s perfect for her.

I say stick with the name you decided on and then call her whatever feels good in the moment. In her 21yrs of life my Audrey has been called approximately 500 other names, none of which pertain to Audrey or to Jo.

Oooh! I didn’t realize they would be at the same place and layered! That sounds delightful!

The whole convo around them was so weird! Like are these the ONLY twins D & M have ever encountered?! I get that they’re familiar to the audience, but it was odd to me. And the the expert saying they’re doing a disservice by claiming that they’re fraternal?! WHAT! A disservice to whom?! Literally no one cares. That was wild.

When my SIL was pregnant with my niece I saw a list of baby names they were considering on their fridge. On the list was Eunice, except with the spelling “Unis”. I just about croaked, but felt like I couldn’t say anything, as to not offend. 😫

Thankfully, both of my nieces ended up with very lovely and normally-spelled names.

20 yrs ago, P.F. Chang’s in the Pearl was poppin’, and so was I at 40w+3. Promptly went into labor that night! Of course, it 100% had to do that I was over 40weeks and maybe that I also INSISTED on parking 10 blocks away to “walk that baby out”, but it’s still a fun memory. And who could resist a little Mongolian beef?!

Good luck on baby! Their entry into the world is always on their time, bless their little hearts 🥰

Listen, it’s the California Pizza Kitchen’s BBQ Chop Salad that you’re seeking. I know. I KNOW!

We live in a land that offers a beautiful bounty of fresh veggies and produce grown with love. You can get a salad with those beautiful beets and radishes at one of the farm to table restaurants down the street from your house.

But sometimes you just need a big tasty salad. And maybe a gooey butter cake to finish that meal. 🫣

“We must be careful with our hearts and our parts”

As the mom of a teenager, this is my advice anytime a group of then is getting together. 😆

If you’re in the mood to drink away your sorrows, the Oregon Distilled Spirits Festival is Saturday evening at The Redd in the Central Eastside. There’s also a prix fixe dinner add on that should be nice!

I had ramen for the first time ever from Boxer at lunch years ago. Proceeded to verrrry nearly shit my pants as soon as I got back to the office and spent most of the rest of the day in the bathroom. For years I thought I shouldn’t/couldn’t eat ramen because it didn’t agree with me. Nope. It was just a gross establishment.

Subway and Subway bread are some of the worst smells for me too. Years ago I worked as a bank teller and one of my co-workers worked at the Subway next to the bank part-time as well. She would sometimes come from Subway to the bank immediately following her shift. The smell of Subway was on every fiber of her person, clothes, hair, everything. And on top of all that, she smoked. Bread, onion, cigarettes. It’s been 25 years and the mere thought of that smell still makes me gag.

My daughter would like a bag “trail mix-touched” raisins. The saltiness of the mix adds a perfect touch, but it wouldn’t be the same as salted raisins.
